Interactive Friction: Tomb Raider (2013): Episode 8: The Mark of a Good Seaman

In this episode, we begin to talk a bit more about the side characters in the game.

This is also our first experiment with doing some slight editing of the footage. Mostly, we cut segments of combat, or of loading screens, where nothing interesting was happening in the game and we weren't making any observations or commentary. Without Sam's editing, this episode would have been a half-hour long, as is evidenced by the fact that "We're 14 minutes in," when you've only seen 7 minutes worth of show.

Watching both the uncut and cut versions back to back, it's obvious that the cut version is noticeably better. In the future, we hope to further improve our craft, resulting in better videos from here on out. Feel free to let us know your thoughts in the comments, as all feedback is appreciated.
